The way the team has played the past two weeks it is hard to think that the new stadium will be full. I have a fear that FAU will see less than 10,000 fans for the stadium opener. That would be a serious kick in the sack and an embarrassment for FAU. Any thoughts?
GO OWLS!!!
Yes, that is a ridiculous statement.
GO OWLS!

Here's why:
If this team took to the field the last two weeks, and scored 10-12 points in each game, folks would think everything was normal.
Now, when they look back at the last two games and probably the next one as well, and think of "Hey, let's go check out the new FAU Stadium on the 15th", things likely have changed from a paradigm point of view.
No, I am not talking about the 12K fan base that shows up to everything. They will be there in Spirit and to support regardless of the outcome.
Talking about the extra folks needed to fill it up, who are fickle just like most of the south florida community.
Now, the new paradigm is:
"Why would I want to go see a team that can't score a touchdown and has no offense whatsoever."
All stadium hype aside, this is likely to be occurring. Afterall people go to football games when they have no tie to the program for love of the game and to see a team score touchdowns. Right now, we can't do that. But Hopefully it changes - quickly.
Otherwise an actual sellout is completely out of the question, IMHO.
